Tesla’s new humanoid robot made its video debut inside this $6.85M LA listing

Tesla’s latest innovation, the Tesla Optimus Robot, made its debut inside a stunning $6.85 million home in the Los Angeles neighborhood of Mandeville Canyon, The Post has learned.

The high-tech automaton was seen inside the for-sale home on the launch video, which premiered on Oct. 11, performing everyday household tasks. They included cleaning and watering plants, all inside the sleek property.

The appearance, inside 2167 Mandeville Canyon Rd., a sprawling five-bedroom spread listed by Jason Peteler of Revel Real Estate, marked the first time Tesla’s humanoid robot had ever been filmed inside a home.

The video has already racked up over 9 million views on X and 1.5 million views on YouTube.

Tesla’s choice of the property was no coincidence, according to the listing rep.

“It’s sort of a balance between a more modern style of the property, and they thought it would blend well with their robot and their look for that particular scene,” Peteler told The Post.

The home — with its polished marble finishes, expansive 35-foot swimming pool and secluded location — visually aligned with the brand’s futuristic vision.

“To have robots in the near future taking care of things, and this is the first home that has ever had them functioning inside… it is pretty cool. I was definitely stoked about that,” Peteler added.

The video also shows the Tesla Optimus unloading groceries and even playing games with the children in the home’s chic and spacious living areas.

While Tesla kept the project under wraps until the big reveal, Peteler shared that they had rented the home for a couple of days for the shoot.

“We didn’t even know what they were shooting,” he said. “They were very secretive. We saw other Teslas in the driveway, but never the robot. Once the unveiling happened, it was very exciting for us.”

The house is known as “La Reserve.”

Nestled behind 10-foot gates, the estate has elegant public spaces, a 14-foot Rosso Levanto marble kitchen island, and a primary suite with separate his-and-hers vanities.

Peteler sees this as a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.

“Tesla could probably rent any house that they want in Los Angeles,” he said, “but they chose this one.”
